149: I'm such a genius!

Liu Xiaotong was in a great mood today because he lost his pencil case.

More precisely, a rich second-generation classmate lost his pencil case at school today. The rich second-generation classmate compensated him fifty yuan to express his apology.

He knew that his pencil case and the stationery inside, even if bought brand new, would only cost thirty yuan. The other party actually gave him fifty yuan directly!

As expected, a rich second-generation is indeed a rich second-generation, always so generous.

Liu Xiaotong decided that he would first use a small portion of this money to buy his daily necessary stationery. The remaining money, he could spend freely.

Whether it was for snacks or toys, it was an unexpected income.

So, after school, he immediately rushed into the stationery store outside the school.

However, after browsing several aisles, he still resisted his inner urge and didn't make an immediate purchase. This was because Liu Xiaotong realized that if he really bought all sorts of new stationery, there wouldn't be much money left.

In fact, just buying the cheapest stationery, fifty yuan would be more than enough to fill an entire pencil case.

But alas, once a person becomes wealthy, they unconsciously raise their demands.

The original 1.5 yuan ballpoint pen was replaced with a 4 yuan one. A set of rulers costing 12 yuan was replaced with a 21 yuan set. The compass couldn't be ordinary iron; it had to be safe and have an alloy feel.

With all these upgrades, let alone fifty yuan, even if the funds were doubled to a hundred yuan, it would be quite difficult to buy everything.

So, after much deliberation, Liu Xiaotong gritted his teeth and, with a resolute heart, turned and left under the bewildered gaze of the shop owner.

If only there was a toy that could also be used as stationery and had entertainment value, that would be great.

That way, he could spend one amount of money but enjoy two kinds of happiness.

And as luck would have it, just as this thought crossed Liu Xiaotong's mind, he happened to walk to the crosswalk at the traffic light.

He scanned around and found that besides the octopus ball uncle, who had the best business, the number of people inquiring at other stalls was sparse.

However, with a turn of his head, Liu Xiaotong's peripheral vision caught sight of Su Yu, who was setting up a stall selling stationery sets nearby, and his eyes immediately lit up!

Hey!

This small stall is quite interesting. Others set up stalls selling all sorts of toys and snacks, but he didn't expect to see someone selling stationery, which is rare!

Logically speaking, stationery at a street stall should be cheaper than in a stationery store, right?

With this mindset, Liu Xiaotong approached and began to examine the items.

He didn't know until he looked, but once he did, he was deeply attracted. The stationery the boss was selling was bundled! All sorts of stationery were packed into a single set box, and it was even labeled with names of firearms.

If you wanted to buy, you could only buy the entire set; you couldn't freely combine and choose items.

After some bargaining, Liu Xiaotong finally bought a seemingly complete stationery set box for fifty yuan.

And now, this set box was quietly placed on his desk.

AWM Set Box!

As a seasoned CF player, Liu Xiaotong was very familiar with various weapons and firearms.

When choosing to buy this set box, he had asked the boss.

Why he bundled the stationery this way and gave it such a name, and the boss mysteriously winked, not directly answering his question.

He just said that after buying it, he would naturally understand the reason.

Liu Xiaotong didn't know what he was thinking at the time, but he ended up buying it by some strange impulse.

Looking at the set box in front of him, the text on the outer packaging caught Liu Xiaotong's attention.

Strictly forbidden to combine arbitrarily, otherwise consequences are at your own risk!

A flash of lightning suddenly crossed his mind, and his small eyes sparkled with shock.

Masaka! Could it be... Liu Xiaotong carefully disassembled the packaging. At first glance, he saw the uniquely shaped ballpoint pens inside.

He tried it, it was a ballpoint pen, and it was a Chenguang brand, which wrote very well.

But why had he never seen a ballpoint pen of this shape in a stationery store?

This discovery immediately piqued his curiosity even more.

Next, he tried the second, third, and fourth pens... When he had tried all the stationery and confirmed that they could all be used normally, a bold and novel idea appeared in his mind.

So, why is this set box called AWM?

Is it because all these pens can be assembled into a real AWM?

Thinking of this, Liu Xiaotong began to carefully study the special slots and deformable structures on each piece of stationery.

This research took two hours in the blink of an eye.

Fortunately, his parents had gone to visit his sick grandfather today, and there was no one at home. Otherwise, if they found out he wasn't doing his homework but was instead researching these strange things, they would surely spank him raw.

But hard work pays off.

After such a long period of research, Liu Xiaotong was pleasantly surprised to discover how the various ballpoint pens should be connected. He had also successfully completed a small part.

Looking at the semi-finished product on the desk, Liu Xiaotong now highly suspected that the street stall owner had forgotten to give him the instructions when selling it to him!

Without instructions, trying to piece this thing together by himself was as difficult as a fifth-grade Olympiad math problem!

But fortunately, his Olympiad math was very good, at a sixth-grade level.

After another hour of research, Liu Xiaotong finally completed the assembly of all the stationery (parts).

Just as he had expected, and just like the pattern printed on the plastic-sealed outer casing.

A lifelike stationery assembly version of the AWM appeared before his eyes!

So cool! It's really a sniper rifle!!!

I am truly a genius!!

Liu Xiaotong excitedly slapped his thigh and jumped up.

He was right; that street stall owner definitely wouldn't make useless design packaging without a purpose.

For Liu Xiaotong, who loves firearms and gun-fighting games, he absolutely adored this stationery version of the sniper rifle!

Because it not only looked cool but was also very easy to hide.

Disassembled, it could be openly brought to school without being discovered by teachers or his parents.

No one would ever think that these seemingly ordinary stationery items could be assembled into a sniper rifle.

The thought of being able to take it to school tomorrow and assemble it to show off in front of his Brothers made the smile on Liu Xiaotong's face as hard to suppress as an AWM.

Fifty yuan bought both school supplies and a toy; it was an absolute steal!

Looking at the other fifty yuan remaining in his pocket, Liu Xiaotong found his piggy bank, then took out another thirty yuan from it and put it together with the rest.

He decided that if the street stall owner was still there after school tomorrow, he would buy another set!
